Ursa Born is a queer Associate MFT and Associate PCC, writer, and amateur naturalist from the great California North. Through humanistic, narrative, and existential lenses, she works primarily with individual adults, couples, and families navigating the complexity of the human experience — the good, the bad, and the absurd. Her style is genuine, warm, collaborative, nonjudgmental, and curious (preferring good questions to easy answers). Paths are made by walking; guided by your own wisdom, strength, and inner compass, we can blaze trails towards your most meaningful and fulfilling life. Ursa often works alongside her therapy dog-in-training, Mr. Rogers, a polite and observant little fellow with a very sleepy work ethic. Outside the therapy room, you’ll find her birdwatching, staring at her garden with self-satisfied smugness, playing the ukulele, and shamelessly begging her kids to go on hikes with her.
